"THE FINISH”

Over a period of several years we have developed the uniquely durable and beautiful finish used on most of the products we market throughout Costa Rica. It is 100% natural and comes from the oil of the Tagua nut (which is as hard as cement) and requires a special technique for removing the oil. When this finish is applied it requires temperatures of around 400deg Fahrenheit. This process preservers the natural beauty of the wood 5 to 10 times better than a lacquer finish. The process involves 9 painstaking, precision steps thus providing the finest, longest-lasting finish possible:

An email from Rick:

Hi Jerry, Just wanted you to know I received the referenced grips today 10/03/2011. They are truly beautiful! I have numerous Colt 1911 grips, original factory, after market cocobolo checkered cut on original Colt factory machines with medallions from Colt not cheap Asian copies, and a set of true elephant ivory obtained from Novack the 1911 sight expert company. There were 2 sets available, Steven Segal (the actor and Marshall Art’s expert) bought one set and I bought the other. Of all the Colts (and I only buy Colts) that I and buy for modification upgrades, I only buy parts from Novak, Wilson Combat, Ed Brown and Karl Lippard (the best of the best). I consider the cocobolo heartwood grips I bought from you to be only second in quality, value and beauty to the original elephant ivory grips I own (the ivory ones were very expensive!) I will show your grips with pride and tell all I encounter where they may find you to obtain such a high quality and beautiful set of grips.

Best regards, Rick Hune (texasexpat)

"The Micro Fine Fusion Baked Finish"

I think you have a winning finish here! It feels durable to me, it looks FABULOUS and, for the few guys who would prefer a dull finish, they could easily kill the gloss with fine paper (or even a "green pad") and polish with coarse rubbing compound for a nice, satin gloss. I think your process of heat-fusing the surface finishes is a great idea. It should give you an edge over other manufacturers. Definitely worth bragging about in your listings. LEO

THE WOOD

Balsamo~Negro
(myroxylon balsamum)

Scientific Name: Myroxylon balsamum
Other Names and Species: Mahogany (Santos) Cabriuva, Vermelha, Chirraca, Estoraque
Balsamo, also called Peruvian Balsam or Quina, is a red/orange wood with medium-fine grain and a pleasant scent. The extract of the bark is used for its medicinal/antiseptic properties.

Origin:
Wide distribution, from southern Mexico southward through Central America down to Argentina.
Appearance:
The very fine and even texture of this well-known and popular hardwood, along with its striped figuring, complements the attractive dark reddish brown color of mahogany wood flooring. The white sapwood is sharply demarcated from the heartwood. The grain of mahogany is typically interlocked, and the surface can have a medium to high luster. When freshly cut, it has a pleasant spicy scent.
Properties:
Mahogany is known for its strength and beauty, and it has outstanding durability. Given its hardness and color-fastness, santos mahogany is a superior choice to genuine Honduran mahogany (Swietenia macrophylla), which it closely resembles in color. In fact, although genuine mahogany is traditionally chosen for fine furniture and millwork, it is seldom used in wood flooring because it lacks sufficient hardness to withstand constant foot traffic.
Janka Hardness: 2200
Santos mahogany is one of the hardest and most durable wood flooring species. It is over two hundred percent harder than Douglas fir, is roughly fifty-one percent harder than hard maple, about one third harder than wenge, and approaches ninety-four percent of Brazilian cherry's ranking of 2350.
Workability:
Because of its hardness, which can make sawing and machining difficult, carbide tooling is recommended for santos mahogany wood flooring. It sands beautifully to a high natural polish, however, and has good holding ability.
Principal Uses:
Mahogany is typically found in wood flooring, turnery, interior trim, and furniture. The pleasantly aromatic balsam of santos mahogany is often used as an ingredient in some perfumes.
